Thank you for your request.

In order to provide the analysis you have requested, we would need to create bespoke analysis. Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, Public Authorities are not obligated to create information in order to respond to requests. We therefore consider this to be information not held.

However, the information you have requested can be obtained from the customer services team of ONS Social Survey Division.

This team provides an ad hoc analysis service, including - of relevance in this instance - tabulations of Labour Force Survey (LFS) and Annual Population Survey (APS) data. These surveys contain a question on religious identity which can be used to obtain the estimates you have requested.

This service is subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreements of costs, where appropriate.

Details of the variables included in these datasets can be viewed in the LFS User Guides https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/employmentandemployeetypes/methodologies/labourforcesurveyuserguidance

If you would like to enquire about our service, then please contact socialsurveys@ons.gov.uk

If you are able to do your own cross-tabulations, you could purchase an anonymised LFS or APS dataset from the UK Data Service. Details on costs and how to download the data can be found on their website:
